RCDRL Texas

The RCDRL proudly welcomes back drivers Alex, Manuel, Kelli, and Chef Tommie Garca of the Garca Cafe as event title sponsors in 2018!

The Garca Motorsports Nationals September 8, 2018, is a little earlier this year. Race 11 of 14 kicks the Countdown to the Championship into high gear and there will be plenty at stake on the Lone Star RC Dragway! Every run is important because a slip at this point could spell Championship disaster.

The location is the same as all the rest, but the weather may be different, making for high drama at an event where titles are on the line!

Come join the Fast Furious Family Fun! 50 / 50 raffles, Good Food, Good Music and Great People… Let’s Do This!

On March 3, 2018 we will celebrate the life of a great pioneer in the RC Drag Racing community. The 2017 RCDRL Hall of Fame inductee Mr. Jim Schauer a.k.a. RAINMAN went to be with the Lord on the morning of January 2, 2018 after a courageous battle with cancer. Jim Schauer helped shape and reshape the RC Drag Racing sport into what it is today.

Presented by Tony Rudis of Rudis Motorsports, the first event of the 2018 RCDRL season will be the “JIM RAINMAN SCHAUER MEMORIAL WINTERNATIONALS” here at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas. We invite all to come and compete. Let’s kick off the season and honor this late great pioneer!

What an amazing racing season the RCDRL Texas family has had. As President of the league, I want to personally thank each and every member who raced down the Lone Star RC Dragway at the Texas Motorspeedway this season. From a record-breaking regular season to the record-breaking RLC Super Nationals this past June, we truly accomplished something special and should all be proud.

To our Officials, Stat Girls, Setup Crew Members to our new Project Manager, Safety and Event Coordinator, a BIG thank you and a tip of the hat to you for going the extra mile all season long. You guys and gals ROCK! Can we get better? Sure we Can! Will we? Absolutely!

The Garca Motorsports Fall Nationals is race #11 of 12. There will be plenty at stake on the Lone Star RC Dragway, every run is important because a slip up at this point could spell championship disaster.

The time and location is the same as all the rest, but the Fall weather change may make for high drama at an event where titles are on the line!

Drivers Alex, Manuel, Kelli, and Chief Chef Tommie Garca of the Garca Cafe have claimed the title sponsorship rights to this event during the RCDRL Texas playoffs! Come join the Fast Furious Family Fun at the Texas Motor Speedway on the RC Lone Star Dragway Saturday, September 30, 2017.

An old rivalry renewed… Will Manuel Garca continue to hold on to the #1 spot in Pro Funny Car or will the current or former Champion rise to the challenge? RLC driver Joshua Mercadel drew first blood two weeks ago by scoring the win at the U.S. Nationals winning round 1 of the TPFC playoffs. Will CowRC driver Scott Davis strike back? Many other drivers are also in it to win it and can not be counted out.

The bell rings for round 2 of the Texas playoffs this Saturday, August 12, 2017, at the Rudis Motorsports Too Hot To Handle Nationals! Be there to witness all 10 classes unfold as the points battle continues! See you at the Texas Motor Speedway on the Lone Star RC Dragway!
